Android : App Update Notification - Doesn't Show Which App Has An Update
Jan 8, 2010
Just got a new Android phone, my second after a brief stint with the G1 a year or so ago..
Today I noticed that I received notifications that I have apps with updates available. When I click on the notification it takes me to my downloads in the Marketplace, but it doesn't show me which app has an update. They all just say Installed.
Is there no way to tell what application needs updating?

Anyone getting this problem? The settings are set correctly and once in awhile I go to my market downloads and there are several programs that need an update.

In my android application I have the following As far as I am aware, I have followed the steps in the documentation to set it to play a sound from the resources folder, and to flash the lights. However, neither of these happen. It does, however, vibrate, as instructed. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? I've looked through the permissions that I can give the app in the AndroidManifest.xml file, but I can't see one for letting it flash the light or make sounds. Code...

Is there any way to detect whether the Notification Windows is being shown? I have a service that updates an ongoing notification, complete with a progress bar and text? Is there a way to know if the notifiication screen is actually being shown, so I can adjust how often I wouldn't be so concerned if not for the fact that the HTC Incredible will reboot after it receives several hundred or so updates. Based on a controlled experiment with a beta tester, the service could continue for 24 hours if it did not update progress, but dies after several hundred updates. So I am desperate to reduce the notifications, if that's what works, and one of the ways I could do that is by not updating as much or at all if that screen isn't being shown.

I have a listview of items (songs on the sd card). The user has an option to load all the songs on the sd card to into a current playlist -- those songs are what is displayed in the listview. Because this can take few seconds to load if they have a lot of songs on the card, I want to display a progress dialog to just tell the user "One moment..." until the list refresh is done.
I launch a thread to do this. I've done this successfully on another app I have (which just updates a database in the background but doesn't update any display), but this one fails with this error message, "Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()". I chopped down the activity and pasted it below. What am I doing wrong here? I have just a vague idea of what might be happening.
By the way, everything works when I take out the threaded stuff, it just looks like the app freezes for a couple seconds.

I have this code for update:
public Boolean update() {
try {data.put(Contacts Contract.Groups.SHOULD_SYNC, true);
Content Resolver cr = ctx.get Content Resolver();
Uri uri = Content Uris.with Appended Id(Contacts Contract.Groups.CONTENT_URI, Long.parse Long(get Id()));
int mid = cr.update(uri, data,_ID+"="+get Id(), null);
// notify registered observers that a row was updated
ctx.get Content Resolver().notify Change(
Contacts Contract.Groups.CONTENT_URI, null);
if (-1 == mid)
return false;
return true;
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.v(TAG(), e.get Message(), e);
return false.

i have an android app, with a actitity, that shows a map, with a position. This possition is updated on sharedPreferences with a service... ok, that works fine. I need that my activity implements runnable to be a thread that read's the position of sharedPreferences each 1000ms and then update the item position on the map... but it doesn't works. As i saw in debug mode, my thread doesn't work fine, ONLY ENTER ONE TIME on RUN() method... i mean that never enters into RUN() method again, only one time, cause this, the positions doesn't be updated on the map. What is wrong? why this thread doesn't work fine?
public class Locate extends MapActivity{
private TextView userText = null;
private TextView permissionText = null;
private TextView lastUpdateText = null;
private Button locateButton = null;.............

I have become accustomed to checking my "Up time" and "Awake time" when checking my battery level. I have noticed that since I updated to 2.2 that the awake time runs continuously and I cannot figure out why. I am guessing that it reset some option when I updated, but I dont know which one. The battery will usually last from 8am until at least midnight, so its not a huge problem but if I can stop it and lower the Awake time and have it last longer I would like to do that. Right now I am at about 70% battery level with 5:54 Up and 4:16 Awake. Has anyone else experienced this or know that the issue might be?

Now that I've updated to 2.1, most of the apps (weather and time apps) no longer work correctly.I live in Panama City Beach but these apps continue to tell me I am slightly north of Tallahassee over 100 miles away and in a different time zone. Stays the same regardless of GPS on or off,I have deleted and re-installed all of the offending programs and that didn't help either.Everything was great prior to the update.

I will try to explain a simple app scenario: My app goes right to a 'main view'. In this main view I have inserted a 'TextView' which displays current settings created by way of the PreferenceManager. For simplicities sake, let's say I have a checkbox in my settings. When I first start my app - the TextView on my main view shows my checkbox setting correctly (true). Now I go to the settings menu, it pops-up, and then I change it to false. I go back to the main view and...no change. It still say's true even after I changed it to false. If I end the app and then re-start it - all is well and it shows my change.
Apparently the main view just stays in the background while I'm changing settings? How can I redraw or update the main view after I change settings?

There are several threads already on how to make custom layouts in the notification bar. The problem is I must be missing something simple.
I have a custom_notification_layout.xml. code...
What is the secret to actually updating the notification?
